Products and Materials

Our technicians have developed and refined many techniques to achieve a higher level of excellence in aesthetic dentistry, allowing us to offer many things other labs simply can't provide. Bay Dental Lab's history of working alongside doctors to develop new methods of treatment for a burgeoning cosmetic market puts us at the forefront of this exciting and ever advancing field. This in depth knowledge is available to you and your practice when you send us a case.

The possibilities are limitless* but here are a few common methods of restorations.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are bonded onto the front of the teeth. Often times these restorations require minimum prep-work and can transform discolored, chipped or misaligned teeth.

Pressable Ceramics

Pressable Ceramic crowns offer the light penetration of all ceramic, while retaining the strength and durablilty of a PFM. Proven in extensive long-term clinical use, the accuracy of this fabrication process ensures consistent substructure thickness, an intimate fit all around the preparation for stress-free restorations, predictable marginal integrity and outstanding strength.

Porcelain Fused to Metal (PFM)

Proven strength and natural beauty. These restorations can include a 360 Degree Porcelain Margins for added aesthetic.

Zirconia

Zirconia offers the strength of a metal and the light-penetration of porcelain. These substructures exhibits Òtransformation tougheningÓ which literally squeezes microcracks together eliminating fracture propagation. This process of actively resisting crack growth is critical in fatigue situations such as those caused by posterior masticatory forces.
